Travel Journals

 We're working in collaboration with Jo Beal on a Travel Journaling Tour in Vietnam...

It got me thinking this morning of all the great travel journals I have seen over the years on my trips and wondering about themes and ideas people might follow in a Vietnam based journal and trip.

I stitch, so tend to pick up and record ideas this way..... although a journal is always handy to keep ideas percolating and ready for the needle.

Journal in progress based around Moorish Delights of Andalusia and Morocco Travels

Romanian Embroidery and bead work

a Travel Scroll full of Vietnamese Textiles and observations



Maps are easy to download from the internet the size needed and add to your journal

All the rest are images by Jo Beal or places we will wander with her in Vietnam


Travel Journals.
A great way to record your journey
A great way to take time and see into this new place you are visiting.
It is true we are all same/ same, but it is the little differences that make the difference 😀.
Viva la difference!

What attracts your eye the most?
Scenery
People
Food
Crafts....
If it all seems too much, a theme to follow helps focus.

Perhaps a page will contain a selection of small sketches that capture your day....
Perhaps a map to plot your day....

There are so many creative ways to work your journal.
Jo Beal @jobeal4, your tutor will be there to help you develop your creative Travel Journal, beautiful Vietnam, your muse.

Take a wander with us in March 2024












Peace
